"Stigma" Kim Taehyung AU

House of cards

This night I couldn't sleep because I was way to happy that I could see her again. When it was eight o'clock I quickly stood up out of bed and ran as fast as I could to her room. "Haneul?" I said already smiling. No answer. I looked through the room but she wasn't here. Where could she be? I quickly walked through the long halls were all the patients happily stepped out of their room.

After I searched the whole building for like half an hour, I still hadn't find her. I lost a little hope and in my thoughts I walked towards the cafeteria. I sat down on a bench thinking for a moment. Suddenly I looked up and looked one last time through the room. I saw a few patients chatting, some being silly and others laughing, just like a school. Until someone catches my eyes. A girl dressed in white was lonely sitting on a bench. She was the one I searched for, so I stood up and ran towards her. "Haneul!" I screamed out of happiness. Everyone was looking at me but I couldn't care. I couldn't see her for seven months and I just needed to hold her tight. She was casually reading a book as I screamed while running "HEY Haneul!" Still no response. I now stood finally behind her as she was quietly reading her book as she sat by the large window. I softly padded her shoulder as everyone wasn't looking at me anymore. She stood up, closed her book and turned around. She just looked at me without saying anything. Her eyes were very light blue, almost white. That wasn't a good sign... "Hey Haneul. I'm so happy to see you again." I said as I tried to smile as best as I could. She could only give me a startled expression, as she became very pale. "W-what's wrong?" I slowly said. Suddenly she dropped her book and ran away.

Haneul's POV:
I was finally free. After all those horrible things that happened the past months. I don't even know how much months passed, or what day it is. I'm so done with everything and I don't even know who I am without Taehyung. I was reading my first book in a long time but I wasn't happy. I couldn't focus because I was way too scared for the next examinations. I heard Taehyung calling my name a few times, but that's probably my imagination. I saw he was dead with my own eyes... My eyes filled with tears again thinking about that horrible, heartbreaking night. I returned reading, or something like that, until I suddenly felt someone softly padding my shoulder. I stood up, closed my book and turned around to see the person. It would probably be a man in a black suit. But it wasn't... Taehyung was looking at me and my heart skipped a beat. My eyes began to water. I think I'm going crazy, this can't be. "Hey Haneul. I'm so happy to see you again." He said as he gave me a smile. This can't be real. He can't be alive. I was completely in shock and froze. "W-what's wrong?" He gave me a worried look. Everything began to be too much. Everything spinned around me and I felt the feeling like I had to faint. Even my grip on the book was less powerful so it fell on the ground. I couldn't stand it anymore so I ran away.

I now stood into the bathroom looking to my pale face and white eyes. I looked very different, but I think my personality also had changed. Tears screamed over my face as I was hyperventilating. I had seen him die. I had tried to save him but it was to late, and now I'm hallucinating about him. Or is he really still alive? My breath went faster than it already was and everything spinned around me. What did I had to do now? I sat down on the cold floor as I lied my head in my hands, still crying until the door slowly went open. There he stood. And I could only look at him still wondering if it was real. "A-are you okay?" He said as I now stood up. I almost couldn't feel my legs and my whole body was shivering. Taehyung slowly approached me, but with every step he took, I went one back. I just didn't believe what I saw. Taehyung gave me a worried look "What have they done to you..." He slowly said as my breath was still very fast. I looked to the floor and saw every flashback of that night again. Taehyung slowly approached me and stroke my head as I was first a little startled. "It's okay." He said. "I'm here with you now." I cried even more as I gave him a tight hug. "Tae." I said sobbing "Don't EVER d-do that again..."

Taehyung's POV:
"Tae," she said as she was crying. She was breathing so fast. "Don't EVER d-do that again..." she cried. What was she talking about? She made little noises as she was crying, but what did I do to make her so sad like this? "What did I do, to make you so sad?" I quietly said. She grabbed me even tighter until I was almost out of breath. "Don't you know?" She said as she now looked me into my eyes with eyes filled with tears "You d-.... You died." She sighed and her breath went faster again. Did I die? I thought for a little moment until I knew the answer. You know what it is with love?" She said. Why was she talking about love so sudden?
"One of two will die first." She whispered as she gave me a grin. "You see. You are in love. So if I let YOU die, I'll destroy her whole world and I will have revenge!" Again the woman laughed.
I thought back of that stupid woman and I knew what she had done. That filthy b*tch. She probably injected her with stuff so she would hallucinate. She's gonna pay for that. I was furious and looked to Haneul again who was still crying. I gave her a tight hug "I'm here now." I said "It's all going to be okay..." I said "Really?" She said. We will probably never escape it here, but I have to. "I promise."
